1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Oleanolic acid (OA) is a triterpenoid commonly found in plants and has shown extensive pharmaceutical activities. This study aimed to investigate the underlying mechanism of antiosteoporosis (OP) action of OA by utilizing the network pharmacology approach and molecular docking methods. First, the targets of OA were identified using the GeneCards, Stitch, and Swisstarget databases, and the targets related to OP were mined using the NCBI, Genecards, and DisGeNet databases. The overlapped targets of OA and OP were regarded as candidate targets, and the String database was used to obtain the protein-protein interactions among the targets. Then, Gene Ontology (GO) functional enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) metabolic pathway enrichment pathways of the candidate targets were performed using the DAVID database. In addition, the top 16 targets in the protein interaction network were used for molecular docking. Finally, an animal model constructed using d-galactose-induced oxidative stress and a low-calcium diet with accelerated bone loss was used to verify the
